A note from the owners:

Our family getaway home in Santa Cruz is one of the warmest, most comfortable places you will every stay. Never rented, this is a place that couples and families will melt into and love. Four blocks from Seabright Beach, on Seabright Avenue, this 110 year old classic craftsmen house is complemented by a completely new pool cabana and one of the rare pools in the beach areas. Lush landscaping with myriad fruit trees and passionfruit vines make this house one of the nicest places you can land on the California coast. The Seabright neighborhood boasts three of the best restaurants in Santa Cruz (La Posta, Tramonti & Linda’s) plus Verve Coffee roastery, a brewery, climbing gym, Betty Burgers, Java Junction, Day’s Market, etc. all within two blocks of the house. Dine out or order and bring breakfast, lunch or dinner back to the backyard poolside dining area to enjoy the privacy and tranquility. Safeway, Whole Foods & Staff of Life supermarkets are 5 minutes away. Sonos speaker system throughout the property to enjoy your favorite music.

You can walk to either the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk or the harbor in 10 minutes. And the historic downtown area, full of wonderful shops, restaurants and movie theaters is a 20 minute walk, 7 minute bike ride or 4 minute drive away. And get ready for the exciting live music scene (The Catalyst Club, Kuumbwa Jazz Center, Moe’s Alley, Rio Theater, etc.). Hop on the Roaring Camp steam train at the boardwalk and take a picnic into the Coast Redwood forests of the Santa Cruz mountains. We look forward to giving you more suggestions if you want.

We know you will love our home as much as we do!!!

A home away from home at the sea

Walkability wonderful ..close to beach , coffee and resurants , even the board- walk and roller coasters. Backyard has everything you could want,,pool , hot tub, expansive outdoor eating area . Has the charm and quirks of an older home. A beloved family home with game boards, cozy couch ,lots of personal knick knacks and even a message chair ”

Backyard was an oasis!

We loved this home in the Seabright area by Santa Cruz. There was great restaurants nearby to walk to and I went on a run every morning to nearby parks. The backyard was like an oasis with so many fruit trees, private pool, hot tub and lounge areas. There was a pool house that looked newly built and had a room with a TV that we got to watch the Olympics on! A workout room and bathroom that went to the outdoors. The house was old and had a lot of stuff so would not recommend for young kids. Definitely had the personal style of the owners, but was comfortable enough for the duration of the stay! ”

Marvelous Stay!!

Our family had the most marvelous time!! The home was so perfect that we truly didn't want to leave. Each room has delightful charm and the backyard felt like a resort. It has a pool, hot tub, modern cabana and lots of inviting spaces to relax and enjoy. Walking out the door you are on the same block from Seabright beach which is stunningly beautiful. You'll be across the street from great restaurants, excellent coffee shops and a short walk to the harbor. To top it off the hosts were were truly lovely to communicate with. As is evident, we highly recommend this beach home!! Thanks again for an exceptional getaway.”
